Green Il Co.. in their report on cotton flu
lures say: business has been fair during
the day, but the bulk was only accomplished
under pressure, and the cost averaged lower
| throughout. There was considerable selling
| of March in anticipation of a full issue OF
notices. and many small longs were evidently
frightened out by the fuller run OF receipts,
with the increase particularly noticeable on
the Atlanta coast. The shrinkage was 495
points, with aquleC close"

CHICAGO. Feb. 2l.-A weak and heavy
feeling pervaded the wheat market during
the session to-day, and prices ruled lower.
The report Of the visible supply showed a de-
crease of ,440, 900 bushels. but even this failed
to stay the downward tendency. Speculative
offerings were liberal, and there was very
little demand even from shorts. Export
clearngs from three ports Saturday aCgre-
gated 400, 600 bushels. Receipts at all points
were 229, 900 bushels. The market opened 14e
lower az 1899 held steady for a short time,
fell of TO 1896, rallied a trifle, and closed at
1870. Cable advices were discouraging to
holders. The feeling was steady here at the
close, que to a report that 100000 bushels had
been taken for export. The tone of the corn
market was also, weak, prices declining ~
&c, closing at inside figures. The visible
supply showed decrease OF 255 900 bushels,
and clear ngs from the seaboard were'larger,
aggregating 372, COO but the influence eXerted
! by wheat was such as to make quite a heavy
market Receipts are moderate, ana shipping
! demand Is fair for the lower grades. OaCs
held steady at Saturdays prices. There was
very heavy trade in provisions. and the
highest prices yet scored were reached. The
starting price Tor May was sl4 70. an advance
OF lTl$c. and then advanced to SIS 10, closing
at the outside figures. Receipts of hogs were
smaller than usual, and the quality WAS very
poor. Shorts were anxious TO cover. and
there were a larger number Of aI1Aye orders
on the market than usIsssxuf Vas firm,
closing sc higher tlG0S5H Saturday. Short
ribs were l0c higher. There Will be no session
of the board to- morrow.
